You can do that with NSPredicate using KVC object.

Create an NSObject respond to the KVC scheme http://theocacao.com/document.page/161 . You can use property for that.

Filter your array with an NSPredicate http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Cocoa/Reference/Foundation/Classes/NSPredicate_Class/Reference/NSPredicate.html

NSPredicate *predicate = [NSPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"self.name LIKE[cd] %@ OR self.alias LIKE[cd] %@",searchString,searchString];
NSArray *result = [baseArray filteredArrayUsingPredicate:predicate];
